Fixed the title
One thing about Huckabee, he could never win AR against HRC. AR longs for a return of Bill in any form possible.
I just do not see Huckabee as President.
Huckabee is a complete whackjob when it comes to global warming; his ideas based on whatever he managed to learn in his one high school science class would ruin our economy and our country.
He ought to stick to his rock band...
nor will you. Too much like Gomer Pyle.
Liked the story. I think that Huckabee has some good ideas, and I think he would have a good populist voice for the GOP. He would, however, be in an uphill battle for the nomination, and he would need a landslide victory to make some of the things he proposes to become reality. I like his mix of conservative ideas and the practical reality of where he is coming from - there is a lot of stuff right now that the GOP will need to show they are willing to tackle. Huckabee’s hope that the freed economy could generate better technology is a great message for all conservatives to take to heart.
Fair trade is a hobbyhorse of the left more often than the right, not least because unions view imposing our labor and environmental standards on poor countries as a way of making them less cost-competitive.
Congratulations to Gov. Huckabee if he can help take the economic/moral high ground of Fair Trade away from the left. Fair Trade is the traditional trade policy of the Republican Party and is generally favored by traditional Conservatives, not neo-cons or libertarians or corporate paracites.
Duncan Hunter can probably make the case better, but let's hear all the candidates on this topic.
Yes, Reverend Huckabee no doubt picked up his keen understanding of economics in his undergraduate years at Ouachita Baptist U. Did you study there too? You spell like you did.
.
Huckabee is pro-amnesty and open borders
Arkansas has ballooned with illegal aliens and violent crime under Huckabee
If Huckabee was even picked as VP that would guarantee a Hillary win because of his not-so-closeted love affair with illegal aliens and ignoring federal and state laws
Commander in Chief in a war?
Tell me another joke Huck!
PS : :
I’ll get more write in votes in 2008 than Huckabee will!
[I’ll get more write in votes in 2008 than Huckabee will!]
snicker!
I believe Arkansas is one of the states mentioned as using more painkilling prescription drugs in recent years.
Probably a combo of the illegals and Huckabee causing the pain.
.
Painkillers huh?
Primarily oxycontin [sp?] from what I read, and then vicodin. Lol, I don’t know how to spell these meds.
Oxycontin was widely used in the Ozarks from what I have read before. Very strong and habit forming. It is doctors who are over prescribing the meds in certain states now.
People travel from other states to get the stuff.
Me neither. He's a nice guy though, maybe he should run for Senate instead.
In 2006, the Democrats won virtually every office in AR except for one U.S. House seat and about 25 of the 100 state House seats. AR and “Democracy” go hand in hand.
Well, Huckabee has already run for the Senate and lost to the more popular “Dandy” Dale Bumpers in 1992.
I like Mike Huckabee. His message is mainly more traditional conservative and less “corporate America” like we have seen in the Bush administration.
It will be interesting how it turns out.
Huckabee would be one I could support if he were not for the North American Union.
